The problem with ferries is that they can't penetrate into the heart of the business district, where most commuters are heading. They end at the waterfront - 42nd Street and the East River is not as big of a destination as, say, 42nd and 5th.I'd rather see the LM line extended through a new tunnel to Penn Station (with two/three tracks added to Penn as well for this service), with DMU trains used for a shuttle, and the Oyster Bay LIRR trains continuing to serve the line. |
